I have had this recipe for ham and pineapple melts bookmarked ever since I found it on A Year From Oak Cottage about a year ago and I have just been waiting for the opportunity to make them. Armed with my ham leftovers I finally got the chance and it was certainly worth the wait! Ham and pineapple is a classic flavour combination and one that I particularly enjoy. How could you possibly go wrong with smothering it with some melted sharp cheddar cheese? Lets not stop there though, when we can add some sweet and spicy honey dijon mustard and top it all off with a splash of Worcestershire sauce! These are so good! With the sweet, spicy, tangy, salty, warm, melted and gooey they have a magical combination of flavours and textures. I have already made them several times and they are quickly depleting my supply of leftover ham. I made them with whole wheat english muffins and they go great for any of breakfast, lunch or dinner or even as a snack.

Directions:1. Spread the mustard on the english muffin and top with the ham, pineapple, cheese and top with a small splash of Worcestershire sauce.2. Broil until the cheese is melted and golden brown, about 2-4 minutes.

It's not exactly the same, but when I was a teenager, I used to CRAVE a sandwich at Friendly's called Sizzled Ham & Pineapple. It hasn't been on the menu in decades, and I don't understand why. It's a perfectly scrumptious combination!

What about making this into pineapple sandwiches? The ham can either be above and below the pineapple, or the pineapple can be above and below the ham, depending on how much one likes ham or pineapple.
